The East York Barbershoppers (EYBS) are a 40+ man chorus that sings close four part harmony in the barbershop style.
We rehearse weekly, perform in shows and at community events regularly, and compete annually against other barbershop choruses from all across Ontario (and on occasion Internationally). Our members come from all walks of life and all across Toronto, and even from outside the GTA, but are brought together by a passion for this great hobby of barbershop singing.
We also take great pride in serving our community through music education, outreach performances, and direct support for affiliated charitable organizations such as Harmony Hall Centre for Seniors and Harmonize for Speech.
We're gearing up to sing with the Scarborough Dukes at the Fall Convention this year!
One more week of practice before we head on down to Hamilton to compete!
Wow, what a turn out! Thanks to all the guests that came out for the night. It was a lot of fun sharing our hobby with all of you, and we're glad everyone followed along and tried a bit of singing.
Pat did a wonderful job guiding all of us through warm up; Eric was great at teaching us a tag; Geoff regaled us with interesting stories from the long history of our Chapter; and many thanks to all the East Yorkers that came together and help make this a great event. We hope to do more guest nights in the future, and we're always on the look out for singers!
